Description: suite of collections and related goodies for Java 5.0
 This library is a natural extension of the Java Collections Framework. The
 major new types are:
  * BiMap. A Map that guarantees unique values, and supports an inverse view.
  * Multiset. A Collection that may contain duplicate values like a List, yet
    has order-independent equality like a Set. Often used to represent a
    histogram.
  * Multimap. Similar to Map, but may contain duplicate keys. Has subtypes
    SetMultimap and ListMultimap providing more specific behavior. 
 .
 There are also more than a dozen collection implementations, mostly of the
 interfaces above, but not all. ReferenceMap, for example, is a ConcurrentMap
 implementation which easily handles any combination of strong, soft or weak
 keys with strong, soft or weak values. Static utility classes include:
  * Comparators. Natural order, compound, null-friendly, ad-hoc, ...
  * Iterators and Iterables. Element-based equality, cycle, concat, partition,
    filter with predicate, transform with function ...
  * Lists, Sets and Maps. A plethora of convenient factory methods and much
    more.
  * PrimitiveArrays: "boxing"/"unboxing" of primitive arrays 
 .
 And there's more:
  * Immutable collections
  * Forwarding collections
  * Constrained collections
  * Implementation helpers like AbstractIterator
